Box Office Collection of Kesari: Akshay Kumar's film has become the fastest film to cross the coveted Rs 100 crore mark in 2019. Akshay Kumar's film Kesari is doing well at the box office. The war-drama has comfortably crossed Rs 130-crore mark in just 13 days at the box office. It is, however, yet to be seen whether the film will meet the ambitious target of Rs 200 crore, a lot of which depends on its performance and other films scheduled to release in the coming weeks.
In terms of its worldwide collection, Kesari is chasing a lifetime total of Rs 200 crore. The film has so far minted Rs 177 crore (approximately) globally.
#Kesari is slow, but steady... Target 150 cr depends on how it fares in Week 3, when new films arrive, screens/shows get reduced and biz gets divided... [Week 2] Fri 4.45 cr, Sat 6.45 cr, Sun 8.25 cr, Mon 3.27 cr, Tue 2.75 cr. Total: 131.03 cr. India biz.
